What happens to my MobileMe Gallery when I switch to iCloud?

I have about 20 picture folders in my MobileMe Gallery.
1.  What happens to those pictures when I switch to iCloud? Do I need to manually download each folder and then reload them to iCloud?
2. Gallery had a nice option of making some folders public and others private - does anyone know if this option exists in the iCloud photostream?
3. I currently have a PC (ugh! - saving to get a MAC) running Windows XP Pro - am I correct that Photostream will not work with my PC?
Many thanks for any help!!

If you have an iPhone 4 or 4s, an iPad 2 or newer you could download iPhoto for iOS; import your albums onto the devices and use the Journal function to create a journal and post it to iCloud for friends to see. It even allows you to announce to your friends and family the new post.  The images look as if they are posted on a bulletin board. After selecting an image, the view can manually view the next image by pressing the next button or view all of them in a slideshow.

  • What happen to my Nokia Drive when i switch to ano...

    I found out that Nokia Drive only offers a voice-to-voice navigation for one country. and it depends on the sim card you put in.
    I travel around a lot, my query is does it depends on the sim card in it or the 1st sim card in it?
    if i started the phone with US simcard, but replace to a Japan Simcard when i go to japan. do i get voice-to-voice navigation for Japan?

    For some reason, the 720 and 520 comes with Here Drive and not Here Drive+. This means it only offers "full offline turn-by-turn guidance in one selected country or region – dependent on the SIM-card you’re inserting into the device before first-time use." 

  • What happens to iweb-built site when I upgrade from Leopard (10.5.8) to Snow Leopard (10.6.3), and subsequently upgrade to 10.6.8 or even 10.7? Will fonts stay the same? Will layout change? Or anything else change? Thanks

    What happens to iweb-build site when I upgrade from Leopard (10.5.8) to Snow Leopard (10.6.3) and subsequently update that to 10.6.8 or even to 10.7? Evidently iweb has been discontinued. I have version 3.0.3 of iweb now but understand that there's been an update for OS 10.6 so same question goes for this update.
    Will fonts change? Will layout change? Will widgets still work? Links? Will Google Analytics PlugIn still work?
    (Since MobileMe is disappearing, I now save iweb site to local folder on my computer, then upload it to GoDaddy using Cyberduck. I run Google Analytics plug in on folder before its uploaded.)
    My computer, MacBook Pro came with iweb, which has been updated to 3.0.3. Since iweb is discontinued, will upgrade of operating system just ignore iweb so that iweb will run the same as before? Or will it wipe it out? Or change how it currently works (questions above).
    Thanks

    As you now know iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two features will be broken.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.

    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: iW14 - Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    NOTE: the iLife 11 boxed version Is no longer available at the online Apple Store.  To get a copy you'll have to try Amazon.com or eBay.com.

    If I merge libraries and then back the merged libraries up onto an external drive or DVD, do I just back up the libraries themselves, or do I also back up the original files?
    If you're running a Managed Library, then backing up the Library also backs up the original files.
    I ask because my HDD is getting pretty full. I want to reduce the amount of stuff on it, and the iPhoto libraries are the biggest single consumer of space at the moment (Nearly 100GB).
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Regards
    TD
    P.s. If you're running a Managed library, then it's the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing
    If you're running a Referenced Library, then you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing.

    You need to be more specific on what you are missing.

    I wish to recycle a number of macs.  What happens to the hard drive when sent to Simms?  Do I need to dismount them?

    Hard drives don't die then come back to life. Your drive never died. You just thought it did.
    Obviously, if a hard drive isn't on and spinning its life is longer than when it is always on and spinning. If a hard drive in a laptop is idle it goes to sleep. That's normal because it prolongs battery life. Of course it hardly matters if the computer is running on AC power. The drive may still go to sleep but there's no impact on the battery.
    If the computer is in use 24/7 then its useful life will be less than if it's in use only 12/7 or 8/7. This is both logical and obvious. But in the long run all computers or their hard drives fail. There is little you can do to prevent that. They are meant to be used. If your life is dependent on the computer being usable, then buy another one as a spare. Or at the very least buy a backup drive, keep the computer backed up, then you can worry less about drive failure.

  • What happens to connection to oracle when process exit

    Hi,
    What happens to open oracle connections when a process exit without closing them ?

    The process monitor (PMON) performs process recovery when a user process fails. PMON is responsible for cleaning up the database buffer cache and freeing resources that the user process was using. For example, it resets the status of the active transaction table, releases locks, and removes the process ID from the list of active processes.
    PMON periodically checks the status of dispatcher and server processes, and restarts any that have stopped running (but not any that Oracle has terminated intentionally). PMON also registers information about the instance and dispatcher processes with the network listener.
    Like SMON, PMON checks regularly to see whether it is needed and can be called if another process detects the need for it.

  • I had a MobileMe account and when Apple switched to iCloud I now have two mail accounts: @mac and @me. Additionally my folders in iCloud not longer show up in my Mail program. How do I return to one account and see my folders on my mac?

    I had a MobileMe account and when Apple switched to iCloud I now have two mail accounts: @mac and @me. Additionally my folders in iCloud no longer show up in my Mail program on my iMac. How do I return to one account and see my iCloud folders on my mac?

    I went to Notes.  Showed all notes.  Three notes are duplicated, one on iCloud and one on Icloud.  I deleted one of the notes and checked to see if the other still existed.  It did.  I deleted the other two notes.  I check all notes and found that the three notes were deleted on both accounts.  The only notes on this device are under On My iPad.
    I went into system settings and tried to delete the Icloud account.  The warning comes up:  This will delete all IMAP notes on your device.  Will this also delete the notes in On My iPad?

  • What happens if i delete an old backup from my iCloud to free up space?

    What happens if i delete an old backup from my iCloud to free up space?

    Nothing. You will lose that backup but you will still be able to make backups in the future if you want to. You can also remove things you do not need from the backup, so you do not have to lose everything from your backup.

  • When apple switch to icloud...where can I store my Mac Gallery?

    when apple switch to icloud...where can I store my Mac Gallery? any suggestions

    Unfortunately, iCloud does not offer equivalents to Mobile Me’s iDisk, Gallery or Web Hosting services. You will need to find a third party solution to replace these services. You might consider DropBox, SugarSync, MediaFire or any other service that offers online storage.

  • When I switched to ICloud I lost my music and notebook info.

    I lost my music and notebook info when I switched to ICloud.

    Your movies and songs are not stored in icloud.  Have you connected to itunes to get the files back?

  • When i switch to iCloud does all the music on my phone suddenly not take up any space?

    when i switch to iCloud does all the music on my phone suddenly not take up any space?

    This is how it was advertised but it is not exactly true unless all your music was bought in iTunes.  You can always redownload a song that was previously bought for free.
    Eventually for a fee they will offer iTunes match and you will be able to do that for other music too that you have ripped off of CDs, for exmple.
    If you have more than one Apple ID, though, like so many of us that came from Mobile me, this service will not really work because you can only flip between one ID and another on an IOS device once every 90 days.  We are not allowed to merge our IDs, so iCloud does not really work for us.

  • What happens to shared folders/mail when I disable/remove a mailbox in Exch2010 and which is better to get space back?

    We have a number of old mailboxes taking up room.  The users are long gone and I looked into removing them.  The clients of these users have been moved to others.  The users had shared folders that held this info.  I have a few questions
    about the removal.
    1. Is there a difference in time before space is given back if I disable versus remove the user in EMC?
    2. If an ex-employee had folders that others are sharing, what happens when I do the remove/disable?  Will the folders still be out there on the people who had it shared or will it vanish from them too?
    Thanks for your help.

    "Best practice" is going to be defined by each company.  I worked for Microsoft for 13.5 years, assisting over 100 large companies deploy either Windows or Exchange, and none had the same definition for their "best practice". 
    If you need access to a mailbox for a time period, you figure out a way to keep it.  If you want any terminated employee's mailbox gone tomorrow, it is gone tomorrow.
    I am a fan of having some sort of process that runs periodically to clear out unnecessary mailboxes and accounts, but if there are business reasons for keeping them around, that needs to be defined into the process.  In my current company, terminated
    accounts are kept for 30 days, mailbox included.  We give mailbox access to a different employee if required and tell them that if they need anything, they need to pull it into their own mailbox.  Then, when the account disappears, the mailbox goes
    into the dumpster.  So, if someone forgot to pull a message, they tell their boss and live with the consequences.
    But again, that's just another example of how it might be handled.  You get to define what will work for you, including pulling your business units in to help with the definition.
